I haven't posted much about my bead making lately, and there's a couple of reasons for that. The first is that I went into a slump recently where I wasn't making very much. Having to be outside in a cold wet winter will do that to you. Also, when I finally got around to making things, it tended to be with some of the new silvered glasses that I've recently gotten which tend to be a bit tricky to photograph. Also, there hasn't been much sunny weather to photograph this stuff in.
Anyway, I finally got around to photographing a couple of things for our Etsy store.
The focal bead there didn't turn out like I had originally planned, but I rather like the way it did turn out. Very '50s sci-fi cover. The set of tiny beads actually came out much better than I expected. It's nice to see that I can still make fairly even beads even on such a small scale.
I'll go through my new beads and see what I can photograph and put up next time it gets sunny. The pricing on Etsy still drives me mad, but we've got a pretty good following there.
